  1. Akogrimo : Access to Knowledge through the Grid in a mobile World Julian Gallop CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory http://www.mobilegrids.org Julian.Gallop@rl.ac.uk

  2. About CCLRC • Provider of large scientific experimental facilities • e.g. neutron source, space science, hosting new synchrotron (Diamond), ….. • UK strategy and focus for international scientific collaboration • 2 main sites: • Rutherford Appleton Laboratory • Daresbury Laboratory Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  3. …… and in computing • UK and Ireland W3C Office • UK partner in ERCIM ( Keith Jeffery, director of IT, CCLRC is ERCIM president since January 2005 ) • Examples of recent initiatives: • Data Curation; e-Publication. • UK e-science: partner in National Grid Service and National Grid Support, HPCX large computing node, data node • EU Grids: • EGEE, … • (within the Information Science and Engineering Group) • FP5: GRASP • FP6: [ Trustcom, ELEGI, ] CoreGrid, Akogrimo • myself: • computer graphics, visualization, data structure, data mining, Grids Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  4. ? Why Akogrimo? - Grid and Networks – not a business proposition yet • Grid Middleware is network agnostic – the net is simply there • Grid Middleware is unaware of Mobility and Pervasiveness • Grid Middleware ignores cross-layer cooperation in modern networks • Grid Middleware is not prepared for the network revolution • Grid is not interesting for network operators – no business model for them. • And so …. To join Grid Middleware and “The mobile Internet of tomorrow” …. GRID Middleware(GLOBUS, EDG, UNICORE, OGSI.NET, …) The Internet The mobile Internet of tomorrow Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  5. Grid services: To be pervasive Anyone, anywhere, any time fixed or mobile personalised knowledge and semantics To allow for: Ad hoc, dynamic and cross-organisational federations To solve complex scenarios in everyday life For network and service operators: To extend their scope by developing new, business services and value added chains. Vision Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  6. Akogrimo partners • Network operators: Telefonica (lead), Telenor, IT-Aveiro • s/w industry: ATOS, Datamat • Tool Provider: BOC • Grid Infrastructure providers: • University of Stuttgart, CCLRC • R&D: Universities of Hohenheim, • Zurich and Madrid; • research institutes: CRMPA and ICCS/NTUA Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  7. …. Summary so far • Started 1 July 2004, will run for 3 years • Overall architecture nearing completion • Collaboration responsibilities have begun • Reports delivered: • Market players • State of the Art • Test bed definition Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  8. What is Akogrimo providing? Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  9. eLearning testbed Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  10. Grids: On demand formation of student groups Sharing of data from several separately administered sources securely Common agreed interfaces for diverse equipment Mobility: Changing physical location of student nodes Mobile sensors and receipt of multimedia Relocation of some higher Grid services from fixed to mobile equipment Challenges of eLearning field trip Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  11. eHealth testbed - more detail on this • Early recognition of heart attacks or strokes and provision of proper treatment as soon as possible • So, monitor patients with a risk of heart attack or stroke. • Activate emergency when required, along with monitoring history • In more detail: • Patient at risk has monitoring equipment communicating with mobile • Patient is registered with heart monitoring and emergency service (HMES) • Locate and direct emergency forces or first responders nearby to the patient • Collect, analyze and interpret patient data before arrival in hospital • Enable access and intelligent filtering of patient records • Combine in an intelligent way live data (e.g. cardiograms) with patient history and simulations • Dynamic Workflows based on results or human intervention • Services range from information retrieval over computational analysis service to information interpretation and filtering.

  12. Heart monitoring and emergency (HMES) Remote Medical Device E-Health User Portal Mgmnt of users and profiles Deployment to patient’s mobile User/Resource Context User/Resource Location Voice over IP Virtual Emergency Environment Virtual Energency Health Record Dynamic navigation Medical data logger Medical personnel and resource locator Health simulation and diagnosis support Medical analysis Translation Traffic surveillance Traffic monitoring eHealth services proposed Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  13. eHealth testbed Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  14. Grids: Creation of VO on demand Integration of patient data from multiple separately administered sources securely Multiple autonomous conventional organisations Services from several conventional organisations Mobility: Monitoring of patients at risk wherever they are Patient’s electronic smart card Access to experts’ knowledge whereever they are Access to equipment in the emergency vehicle Challenges from eHealth test bed - a selection Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  15. video • eHealth video – 3 minutes • akogrimo_ehealth_450.rm • Note – eHealth video was made before prior monitoring of patients at risk was included in the test bed planning Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  16. Selected technical considerations • Operational VO on demand for running workflows: inherits providers, roles, responsibilities, rights and restrictions already set up in parent VO. • Service discovery and negotiation within workflow execution timeframe • Policies for VO Management, SLA, security • Security at Grid level to interwork with A4C • Signalling and message delivery both available • Presence detection • Context determination (on next slide) • Mobile IPv6: allows roaming with minimal disruption Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  17. #User: Profile: e.g. contact details, preferences Current role Presence Location Locally available services: Device: Screen OS Installed s/w Examples of Context Context may influence workflow behaviour Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  18. Role of Akogrimo in the EU Grids programme • Some collaboration task leaderships • In particular, standards analysis resulting from EU Grid Projects: • NextGrid and Akogrimo provide co-chairs • Strategy Group - includes Jamil Appa, one of today’s SIMDAT speaker • Idea is to focus efforts of the Grids projects, so that Europe’s voices are heard • First phase of information gathering Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation

  19. Collaboration prospects • Is there a role for collaboration by non-European partners within Akogrimo? • Not originally envisaged in project plan and budget • A call (within Europe) is being made for a partner to represent the interests of a 3rd test bed – application: disaster response • Possible roles for unanticipated institutions – note - not discussed with consortium: • Further requirements analysis for mobile grids • Host visiting researchers or implementors • Solutions previously unknown to us • Possible confidentiality issues (e.g. European telecom operators) Advanced Grid Research Workshops through European and Asian Co-operation
